NEW YORK, USA: Fort Tilden covered in graffiti art. NEW YORK’S last line of defence has finally been defeated by a multi-coloured art attack. The heavily fortified Fort Tilden once stood strong in defence of New York from her enemies during both world wars is now an open-air graffiti art gallery. Internal walls which once housed armour and artillery now used as a canvas for graffiti artists displaying expressions of art. Situated in the Gateway National Park Fort Tilden is surrounded by the natural beauty of beaches and wildlife, making this abandoned fort a striking monument to America’s servicemen and women. Local attorney Karen Johnson (56) spends her working week dealing with securities litigation and her weekends photographing abandoned buildings.
